I made burritos Sunday night for dinner. That recipe will forever be in my cooking repertoire.

Did I just stumble into Bizzaro-World where right is wrong, and left is right?

Seriously.

This reminds me of the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland.

As adequately described on wikipedia...
"Alice first encounters it at the Duchess's house in her kitchen, and then later outside on the branches of a tree, where it appears and disappears at will, engaging Alice in amusing but sometimes vexing conversation. The cat sometimes raises philosophical points that annoy or baffle Alice. It does, however, appear to cheer her up when it turns up suddenly at the Queen of Hearts' croquet field, and when sentenced to death baffles everyone by making its body disappear, but its head remains visible, sparking a massive argument between the executioner and the King and Queen of Hearts about whether something that does not have a body can indeed be beheaded. At one point, the cat disappears gradually until nothing is left but its grin, prompting Alice to remark that she has often seen a cat without a grin but never a grin without a cat."

You know, Doc, in Wonderland - things are never as they seem!

"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?"

It's all Jabberwocky to me.
